Center for Research on Invasive Species and Small Populations

The Center for Research on Invasive Species and Small Populations (CRISSP) is a cross-disciplinary group of scientists and educators addressing natural and agricultural resource problems. Their emphasis is on ecological issues confronting small or declining populations of native flora and fauna and the spread of invasive species, with special emphasis on understanding the lineages between these threats to native and managed ecosystems in the region.
